Orientation: Public institutions are concerned with some of the most complicated and challenging issues that occur in society. They sometimes tackle these issues in an environment that is unforgiving and hostile. This reality can be stressful and tedious for many workers who internalise public service motives but realise their minimal capacity to address these issues in a meaningful way. This complex combination of motives indicates that there could be considerable advantage in human resource (HR) managers' strategically comprehending the influence and impact of normative, rational, and affective motivations as they try to attract candidates. This study provides an overview of public servant motives and how public service motivation (PSM) and the willingness to compromise can influence their work engagement. This is done with the aim of providing a better understanding in order to guide the design of HR policies, especially in hierarchical and bureaucratic settings, such as those in public organisation. Understanding the relationship between PSM, the willingness to compromise and work engagement of public servants may establish novel perspectives of looking at human behaviour and that may serve as a foundation for efficient operations, specifically in their workplaces.Research purpose: To investigate the influence of public service motivation and the willingness to compromise on work engagement in the South African public sector.Research approach and design: A quantitative research approach and a cross-sectional survey design were used in this study. To collect the sample of N = 279 public servants, a non-probability purposive convenience sampling technique was used.Main findings: The results show that public service motivation and the willingness to compromise influence work engagement among the participants. The findings indicate that when public service motivation was present among the participants of the study, it resulted in increased work engagement. Furthermore, the results suggest that when the public servants sampled in this study are employed in jobs considered be their most preferred and ideal career choice, they are liked to be highly engaged in their work. In contrast, when these public servants are employed in jobs that they consider as their alternative career choice, they are likely to report decreased levels of engagement.
